Edmonton won the first game, 37-16, on Monday.
In the second game, Burris helped the Stampeders get revenge by completing 19-of-36 passes for 323 yards without an interception. It was an inauspicious start though, as he fumbled the first snap of the game and it was returned 25 yards for a score by Shannon Garrett.
Burris responded by hitting Ryan Thelwell for a 3-yard score on the next possession. He hit Jermaine Copeland for an 8-yard score in the fourth and made it 38-26 with a 27-yard TD strike to Kenyon Rambo with 1:52 left that sealed the win.
Copeland had four catches for 92 yards for the Stampeders (6-4). Meanwhile, Ricky Ray completed 29-of-42 passes for 357 yards and an interception for Edmonton (6-4), which had its two-game winning streak snapped.
